CHINESE HILL OF FARE,
RICE THE STAFF OF LIFE IN THE
FLOWERY EMPIRE.
Butter and Clieese Abhorre.il—'Tlie Celes
tials Can Stoinacli Many Things We
Could Not Eat, But Dislike Some of
Our Articles of Diet.
A Chinaman will oat anything that
ho can bite. He turns up his nose at
nothing, although he is not so fond
of rats, mice and puppies as we are
inclined to think. In fact, authorities
agree in saying that as far as their
experiences go, they have never seen
either of these animals exposed for
stile in the market except nt Canton.
Of course, the very poor, those who
cannot get anything else, will car
what necessity compels, which in all
probability will be a large sleek ro
dent. Such animals, carefully fed
for the purpose on rice and such food,
arc no donbt to be found if you
know where to look for them, but to
say that these creatures form the com
mon articles of food forthe millions in
China is no more truthful than it
would be to say that the American
dines on horseflesh.
Itiee is the staff of life in Chinn.
That is, in the southern part, but in
the northern regions millet takes its
place as the mainstay of the peo
ple. Both of these grains are con
sumed in enormous quantities. One
according to the part of China in
which you are, appears on the table
twice a day, for that is as often as a
Chinaman is supposed to eat, in the
homes of the rich and poor alike,
though he generally stows away a
few tilings between meals. The dif
ference between the tables of the rich
and t lie poor is to be found in the rel
ishes or side dishes which accompany
this staple diet.
The laborer is content to find on his
table his bowl of rice and a vegetable
or two. Sometimes a piece of pork or
a fowl is added; fish are greatly
prized, and are eaten in all manner
of ways. None are too small to be
thrown away, none so large but what
they can be devoured. Sharks' tins
are considered a great luxury, and
are not found except on the tables
of the rieh. Neither are the fishes'
maws despised, but rather consid
ered as a dainty. Small fishes of a
variety somewhat* like the sardine are
eaten alive, and the evident enjoyment
which the Celestial derives from feel
ing them wriggle their way down
affords a sight nearly as amusing as
it is disgusting
This is not the least of the articles
of food considered as great delicacies
by the Chinese which are rather
nauseous to us. Hundreds of greenish
brown worms, fresli from the rice
fields, are offered for sale by peddlers,
while salted and pickled eggs, having
for their recommendation their old
age, are greatly prized. There are,
however, certain things which a Chi
nese stomach rebels. Our fondness for
butter and cheese, for example, is ut
terly incomprehensible to the Celes
tial. Cows' milk is rather tolerated
than liked, while women's milk is sold
on tlie streets, being considered very
healthy for the aged and infirm.
•Snakes are eaten by the poor people
in some parts of Chinn; for instance,
in the neighborhood of Antoy. In
some districts of the Canton province
they are also eaten, but many other
varieties of the reptile specie, as the
eel, are undoubtedly included in the
term. One authority on the subject
says that he saw n man in Swatow
hawking long brown snakes In a bas
ket for food. "There were three or
four of them," lie says, "tied with
strings around their neck, the strings
being fastened to the top of the basket
to prevent their escape. They are
rather an expensive article of diet
costing about seventy cents each,"
which is a great deal in a country
where a man's wages are from three
to five cents.
The famous birds' nest soup is made
from birds' nests brought all the way
from Ceylon and Malaya, where they
are gathered at great risk from tlie
caves on the seashore. These nests
are not at all like the ordinarj- birds'
nests of which we are accustomed to
think, composed of job lots of twigs
and sticks, and hay and grass, but
they are made almost entirely of a ge
latinous substance similar to Irish
moss. The best quality, those free
from twigs, etc., command .S2O to S3O
per pound, while none of the poorest
fall
myparlu'fe' birds' nest soup, translated
from the Cl.mese*
"Tnkc clean white birds' nests
y shreds, or birds' nests, and soak thor
oughly. Pick out al! the feathers.
Boil in soup or water till tender and
of the color of jade-stone. Place
pigeons' eggs below and add some ham
shreds on top. Boil again slowly with
little fluid. If required sweet, then
boil in clear water till tender, add
sugar candy and then eat. This is a
most clear and pure article, and thick
or oily substances should not be
added. It should be boiled for a long
time; for, if not boiled till tender, it
will cause diarrhoea."
The manner of preparing food in
China is totally different than with its.
Boasts are seldom indulged in, nearly
all kinds of food being boiled, as the
Chinese regard roasted foods as very
unhealthy. Meat, instead of being the
staple food, is the relish. The meat,
when eaten at all, is to relish the rice
or the vegetables, and not the vegeta
bles to relish the meat. Although nom
inally taking but two meals a day, the
first at about S to 10 and the other at
5 or 0, nearly every one knocks off at
noon for a bite between meals. These
lunches are procured nt any on" of the
numerous restaurants and generally
consist of a bowl of fish eongce or
some other tasty soup or dish. Pea
nut oil and soy are added to all of the ,
made-up dishes which form the food
of the people. Tea is drunken univer
sally. Hard toiling laborers are al
lowed five good meals a day.
Perhaps, my fair renders, you would ,
like to try a Genni duck. This is how ■
it is done:
"Take a fat duck. Open and clean.
Take two mace of salt and rub over it
both outside and in. Put into an
earthen dish and take of fan spirits j
one cup, and put the cup with the j
spirits Inside the duck. Do not let the
spirits fall onto the duck; only the va- j
por of the spirits is wanted. Steam :
over water till quite tender. Lift out i
tlie wine cup into the bowl. Done In
this way there is no need of minor
vegetables."
The Chinaman is a native cook,
young John Chinaman cooking as
readily and neatly as his mother. j
Tlie Doctor'* nnml.liakv.
The Journal of Hygiene, of Paris,
tells us that from the earliest times !
the most familiar gesture of the phy- j
sicians has been to place his hand on
the wrist of the patient to feel his
pulse. Even to-day, in spite of so
many of the disappearances of many
of the old customs, the doctor who
neglects this preliminary ceremony
loses his credit. This is a formality,
but he must accomplish it before he
has the power to sign a prescription In
due form.
According to the French journal the
doctor can replace this without any |
danger to the patient by a simple grasp -
of the hand; the vigor of the patient's
grasp revealing his precise state of!
health. The grasp of the hand of a '
man in health is frank, spirited and
rather rough; if it is given against the!
rules of politeness, it betrays a tempo
rary weakness of physical strength.
The hand extended litnp without
pressure indicates little energy, either!
moral or physical.
If the grasp is rapid or nervous, the
person possesses a temperament which ]
is quick and easily overexcited. The j
hand which is given passively and j
without nervousness always betrays a '
weak condition.
Physicians can find in the study of
the hand grasp one element more to
smooth the difficulties of the diagnosis.

A very late fad—mark that "the lat
est" is not used in connection with it, j
as that means something very differ- j
ent—is to announce in this way, by j
letter: "The many friends of Mr. 1
Jones and Miss Smith may be inter- j
csted to know that their engagement
is off. Each is receiving congratula
tions." With this announcement is in i
closed the card of "Miss Smith." II
looks, don't you know, as if the lady
had seen her mistake and wanted her !
friends to know of it at once, but be
fore she got to the end of the letter
a qualm of something—goodness
knows what name to bestow upon it— j
overtook her, and Instead of saying ;
as she at first thought she might that j
she was to be congratulated she al- j
lowed that "each is receiving congrat- j
illations." As yet such an announce- j
inent has not been received by a man j
in a similar case—he might use differ
ent language in his. But the better i
than half-blind could probably read
between the lines as well as in the I
case of the woman.—Boston Tran- j
script.
All Amusing Kagle Slory.
An amusing story Is being told of M
Brunei lore, the distinguished editor or
the Bevue des Deux Moudes. He is
an authority on Bossuet, often styled
the "Eagle of Menux." A visit to
America brought M. Brnnetlere a let
ter from a showman of the Barnuin 1
type as follows; "I have just heard j
that a Menux eagle, very celebrated, |
it appears, in your own country, has
become your exclusive property. As '
proprietor of one of the largest mu- J
seums in the States. I may say that
this Meaux eagle, whose reputation ;
has beeu enhanced by your eloquence, !
would be valuable to me. If you will
let me have this rare bird, and tell me i
how you feed him. you can quote your 1
own figure." M. Bruiietiere politely
explained that this "rare bird" had |
been dead for nearly 200 years, and
had never even been stuffed!

Swarms of rats have been making
their home about the Carpenter steel
works. The other day one of the fore
men succeeded in capturing a big one.
He tied a little bell about its neck ami I
then gave the rat its freedom. As the
b-ffi began to ring tlie other rats lie- '
fanie" completely demoralized and'
rushed toward (fie river. Some were I
drowned and others swam down the
Schuylkill to places of safety fai [
away. The workmen estimate that
fully 500 of the rodents left the steel j
works.—Philadelphia North American j

nation grows madder year by year, and j
the local government report now blunt- I

tion of porridge is one of the principal j
causes. Matters have, indeed, come j
to a sad pass when Scotland, whose |
stalwart sons have advertised by their J
appearance the virtues of porridge in '

Tlie principal cotton mills in China
are those at Shanghai. They now j
number eight, and have 273.000 spin- I
dies and 3450 looms. At Niugpo there j
is one mill nt work with 11,000 spin- '
dies, and at Hankow there are two
with 30,000 and 50,000 spindles re- '
spectively. The proportion of workers i
in these mills in every 100 is 51 wom
en, 24 men and 25 children, and the
average wages all round are $2.50 a
